My model 25-PVC does the same thing. After 2 years of owning the stove the exhust blowers died on me. I went down to a electrical motor place and they replace the bearing for $70. That did not last too long at all. I ran 2 times and I had the same problem. The exhaust moter when turn on would start humming then it shut down. Am I suppose to grease this somewhere, or do I have a defective motor. For 2 years old I hate to spend the $150.

Has it always been this way, or is this something new?

i just got the stove last year from my inlaws it has always burnt this way from what i know. when the stove wwas new they called englander and were advised to change settings to 1-9-1 and they ran it at 2 for heat. but this just doesnt seem right. i even checked voltage at exhaust blower its 114.7 a/c cant really go any higher.

Have you removed the conduction blower, inspected and cleaned? Sounds like it's not pulling air through the burn pot.

i have had the stove apart and replaced all gaskets cleaned motor and impeller. even took it outside and ran the leaf blower through it. i have had no change. the exhaust blower does make a little noise when cold but then it goes away.

well i just ordered new blower. we will see if it help ill let you know. this stove doesnt have a restrictor that is adjustable. anyone ever make an adjustable plate. would it help or even be worth the time?
